Frequently Asked Questions
What Shure microphones are compatible with the BLX1 transmitter?
The BLX1 works with any Shure microphone or cable that has a TQG (TA4M) connector. This includes popular lavalier mics like the WL93, WL185, and CVL, headset mics like the SM31FH and Wh30, earset mics like the MX153, and instrument cables like the WA302 and WA304 for guitar/bass. You can also use third-party microphones if they have a TA4F connector.
Do I need to buy rechargeable batteries or will regular AAs work?
Regular alkaline AA batteries work perfectly and provide up to 14 hours of use. However, many professionals prefer rechargeable Ni-MH batteries (like Eneloop) to save money long-term and reduce waste. Avoid lithium batteries as they have different voltage characteristics. Always use batteries of the same type and change both at the same time.
How do I know which frequency band (H9, H10, J11) to choose?
The frequency band must match your BLX receiver and be legal in your region. In the USA, all three bands are legal. H9 (512-542 MHz) and H10 (542-572 MHz) are most common. Check the Shure Wireless Frequency Finder on Shure's website by entering your zip code to see which bands work best in your area and avoid local TV station interference.
Can I use the BLX1 with non-Shure receivers?
No, the BLX1 must be used with Shure BLX Series receivers (BLX4, BLX4R, or BLX88). It uses Shure's proprietary wireless protocol and won't work with other brands like Sennheiser, Audio-Technica, or even other Shure wireless series like SLX or QLXD. Always match the transmitter and receiver from the same series.
How far can I move away from the receiver before losing signal?
The BLX1 provides up to 300 feet (100 meters) of range in ideal conditions with clear line-of-sight. Real-world range depends on obstacles like walls, metal structures, and interference from other wireless devices. For most performance venues, halls, and houses of worship, 100-200 feet is reliably achievable. Always test your specific environment before important events.
